Navigators names new leader of energy/engineering business
Specialty insurance holding Navigators Group has promoted Patrick Milner to president of NavTech, succeeding Stephen Coward, who retired at the end of July after more than 15 years with the company.
NavTech is the company’s global business unit underwriting upstream and downstream energy, power generation, engineering/construction and other technical industrial-related risks.
Milner has been with Navigators in London for nearly 30 years and worked with Coward at the formation of NavTech in 2009. Most recently, Milner led the company’s global upstream energy business.
In addition, Jerry Wosleger has been promoted to senior vice president of NavTech, responsible for building the NavTech business in North America, in addition to his current leadership of the global downstream energy practice. Wosleger is based in New York City.
Stan Galanski, president and CEO of Navigators, commented: "We congratulate Pat Milner and Jerry Wosleger on their expanded leadership roles in one of our most important industry specialties – global energy."
"At the same time, we thank Stephen Coward for his many contributions—both as an expert underwriter and insurance executive—to the growth of Navigators," Galanski added. "We are confident that the culture of technical underwriting expertise that has been the hallmark of NavTech and indeed of our company is in good hands with this logical transition in leadership."
